E-mail and Calendaring

With the world moving further into the twenty-first century and the "Age of Information", reliance upon speedy electronic mail has become almost as common and seemingly vital as the telephone. The tools below will answer questions and address concerns you may have regarding your Virginia Tech e-mail account.

To help faculty and staff in organizing and maintaining schedules and calendars, Virginia Tech offers centralized support for calendaring through Outlook with Exchange. Instead of using Exchange, departments are welcome to find and manage a different calendaring system, such as Meeting Maker, if desired. However, departments are then responsible for providing support to people who use their system and for maintaining their own server.
